Description

Explore the complex history of maternal identity with Motherhood in India: Glorification without Empowerment? published by Routledge. This academic text provides a comprehensive overview of how motherhood has been represented and experienced in India from ancient times to the modern era. The book examines the argument that the central role of motherhood in a woman's life is a manufactured ideology. By looking at different parts of society, the contributors analyze how institutional structures shape these perceptions. Readers will find detailed discussions on the influence of language, religion, media, law, and technology on the concept of being a mother. Organized chronologically, the chapters trace the evolution of motherhood through various stages. The content moves from the history of goddess worship to the role of motherhood in nationalism. This book is a valuable resource for those studying the social and cultural shifts in Indian society and the structural forces that define gender roles.
